After developing Potions, Fatima did not launch an attack immediately. On the contrary, she spent more time preparing. There are several reasons why Arcanist is famous among the Astral Realm.

They have inherited a unique magical frequency from their precursor race of wizards, which gives them a magical versatility rarely seen in the world. They live in a highly controlled society dedicated to developing and sharing knowledge. They also secretly possess knowledge from other universes.

But one of their most powerful abilities lies in their preparation. It is not uncommon for Arcanist to be defeated in battle or frustrated in an invasion. However, so long as they survive, they are able to retreat, learn from their mistakes, and develop highly targeted plans for next time. They have endless knowledge to draw from, and can even call upon others to assist in analysis and planning.

Fatima is cautious by nature, because she is her daughter's only relative in the world, and she does not want anything to happen to her. Therefore, she gave full play to her nature and prepared for half a year before launching the attack.

"Is everything ready?" Fatima asked.

"No questions," Kadija replied.

"Then, execute the plan."

As soon as the words fell, everything unfolded at an alarming speed. This was exactly the plan Fatima made to prevent the god's corpse from noticing and reacting. Countless invisible Divine Artifact spread Anti-Divination Knockout Potion silently in the air. Fatima and Kadija target all surviving shadow Beast and the surrounding herd.

Before these creatures had time to react, they felt dizzy and fainted. Then, a Golem appeared in their area, teleporting them to Causal Zone of Mage Tower, cutting off their connection with the god's corpse. Several creatures with wild instincts or extraordinary perceptions woke up, but Potions had greatly weakened them.

Kadija did not neglect and sent the most powerful Golem on the ship to complete the task. When the last one was captured, Kadija noticed that a terrible consciousness was slowly awakening.

"It seems that Arcanist Liu Zheng is right," Fatima muttered to herself. In the past six months, she tried to find the corpse, but failed. Shenming was born with the ability to hide his own information, including avoiding Divination. It seems that this ability has become more powerful on the corpse. After all, its only purpose now is to hide itself until it evolves into a new life/consciousness.

Fatima looked at this strange creature. It was five meters tall, human-shaped, covered with black scales, with a horn on its head, and its claws exuded the power of shadow. Looking at this "ugly" creature, Fatima shook his head. Although Empire scorned the gods, they had to admit that the gods were almost perfect creatures.

Once promoted to a god, a person will gain some common abilities, including primary space manipulation, primary dream manipulation, soul manipulation, multiple immunity abilities, and finally extremely high charm. All gods - no matter what race they are - are beautiful in the eyes of non-gods. However, the monster in front of Fatima is simply synonymous with ugliness, which is also a sign of its corruption.

"Are we ready?" Fatima asked.

"Ready, ma'am."

"Then, let's get started."

Mage Tower released a spell, which appeared as more than a hundred magic arrays superimposed on each other. Then, an extremely sacred golden light spread to every corner of this plane, turning the originally dark and terrifying world into a golden Utopia.

Every Arcanist who has the ability or desire to explore Astral Realm must take a course. The first lesson they learn is that 99% of the power systems in the Astral Realm are focused on one element, so when faced with these systems, the best strategy is to use the element that is incompatible with the other.

This god's corpse once possessed [Shadow Authority], which was a branch of the dark element. Therefore, Fatima used a powerful light spell to weaken the opponent. The god's corpse let out a scream, and its voice echoed in this desolate plane. The black the Spot began to fall off of it, which was a sign of shadow energy leakage.

"Continue," Fatima ordered, and Kadija activated the second spell: Grudge Curse. Gods have extremely high immunity to magic or energy, including curses. And because this god's corpse has been corroded, its immunity to curses or dark spells is even higher than that of ordinary gods. So, since Fatima knows this, why did he choose this spell?

Because she knows her spell works for many reasons. The magic that affects and kills Bleach is called Higher Magic. Arcane Rune Magic of Ian is a kind of Higher Magic, and after studying Origin Runes and the original Higher Magic--Elven Magic in his universe, he further upgraded it.

During the invasion of Guznader, Emerald City fell and Queen Milser was killed, Ian obtained her Sun Elf Bloodline and learned some of High Elf Magic. He analyzed it and incorporated it into his own system.

Of course, this is not the only source of Fatima's confidence. She chose [Grudge Curse] for a reason. This god's corpse destroyed the plane, killing all its inhabitants. The residual resentful energy in this plane is the Astronomy number, and her spells are designed to use this energy as enhancements.

The god's corpse roared a second time, and a red mark appeared on its body, extending from its horns to its toes. There was pain hidden in its voice, but no one paid attention to it.

"How much energy do we have left?" Fatima asked.

"57%."

"It's not too bad," she nodded. For this expedition, she bought three Tier 8 Aether Core and several Tier 7 cores, which was indeed a bit of a fuss. However, Fatima didn't think so. If it weren't for her safety level, she would have bought more frugally. These cores were her last trump card to prepare for accidents during the voyage. She will use all their energy in a desperate attempt to save Lana.

"Start the third round of strikes," Fatima ordered.

"As commanded."

Mage Tower released a strange sound. When the god's corpse heard the sound, it held its head and screamed in pain. What is Fatima's specialty? Soul. It can be said that she is the nemesis of creatures like the god's corpse that are trying to give birth to new souls or have just given birth to new souls or new consciousnesses.

The god's corpse roared in pain for a few seconds before falling down and hitting the ground heavily. The shock wave generated was enough to destroy North America and South America.

"The fourth round of strikes," Fatima shouted. The black and gold Anti-Divination Chains appeared in the sky, then tied up the monster and tried to capture it. It struggled desperately for a while, but everything was in vain. Then, the monster stopped resisting, and its eyes lit up with a golden-red light. Its momentum began to surge sharply, activating all the alarms of Kadija.

"Planar Will--The monster swallowed it and is now using its power," Fatima muttered. "Use Planar Will to seal the spell, then attack it with another purification spell." Exploration Era, Empire have made great progress in their research on Planar Will, and they have even surpassed the level of knowledge before Ian left.

The red seal entered an unknown dimension, and then a golden beam of light landed on the monster.

"Madam, our attack only delayed it," Kadija hui reported.

"I can see it." While the monster is resisting the seal, it is using its authority as the controller of Planar Will to absorb the energy of this world to maintain its injuries.

"Kadija, I need to borrow your computing power," Fatima ordered, and then merged with her Tower Spirit. Her brain was now running faster than any quantum computer, and she began to deduce a spell that could separate Planar Will from its soul.

Fatima knows a thing or two about Planar Will because a therapist once suggested using it to save Lana. The idea is to use Planar Will as the mother's embryonic sac and use its power to heal Lana's injuries. The plan was not adopted because there were so many things that could go wrong, especially the possibility that Planar Will would replace Lana's young mind. However, during the time she worked on the idea, she learned a great deal about the subject.

Using all this knowledge as a basis, she quickly created a new spell. She ran several simulations to find flaws and eventually perfected it.

"How much energy is left?"

"9.75%."

"Higher than I expected," Fatima muttered to herself. As she fought against Planar Will, she used powerful light spells and created a new spell. All of this cost energy, so she expected there would be much less left.

"Switch to spare core."

"As you wish." The Origin Runes's most powerful ability is to manipulate and convert energy. Normally, in older models of Mage Tower, there would be a slight delay in the Fatima's instructions. However, with the current technology of the Empire, the switching process is seamless without any delays or issues.

"We are ready," Kadija hui reported.

"Then, let's attack."

Fatima activated the spell, and a huge long sword appeared in the sky. The long sword slashed down, as if a piece of Void was cut open. However, Fatima knew that what was severed was the connection between the god's corpse and Planar Will.

Without this source of power, Anti-Divination Chains came into play. They sealed all the monster's power and then brought it back to Mage Tower.
